Saturday, May 12, 2012 I was at a school event, but the school was a combination of college and Hogwarts. It was an outdoor thing, and some people from my high school were also there. A friend and I wanted to leave for a while so we went down to the catacombs. It was dark and mysterious, and there were secret doorways and hidden staircases and shadows of moving people that we could only half see. He left to go up one of the staircases to get something or do something he'd forgotten about, and I continued. It was a crazy place, full of darkness and magic and excitement always lurking around the next bend, and when I emerged back into the light and the normal college scene I felt removed, like I no longer belonged, like I knew something beyond what the others could imagine.
During a nap; Saturday, May 05, 2012 An old friend and occasional bedfellow moved back to town, and came over to have a sleepover, as though we were children. He didn’t want to have sex, because he didn’t want to bring up old issues, but he wanted to sleep in my bed and wake up with me. He slept over, and I kept trying to kiss him. Then he turned into a girl, and I noticed that she had a series of rotating metal rings in different patterns where her stomach should have been. It reminded me of those ear piercings people get, the ones that stretch out the earlobe until it’s a huge hole surrounded by flesh. That’s what her stomach looked like; small metal rings around the border, on the same plane as what remained of her stomach, and larger rings on the inside at a right angle to the other rings. I asked her if she was commissioned to play robots in films, and she said she was. I remember wondering how we were going to sleep together now.
